Our interactive impact map makes storm threats personal. Chuck Watson, a Savannah-based hurricane researcher and founder of Kinetic Analysis Corp., created the database by using computer models to predict maximum wind speed, water height, and average damage throughout the area in various hurricane scenarios.
